Has anyone here transitioned into Data Analytics from audit/FP&A? I’m interested in potentially going that route but not sure how to get started (currently in FP&A and former audit). I see Data Analysts typically require a background in SQL, which I don’t use in my current role. Would it be beneficial to take SQL courses and earn certifications to add to my linkedin? Also, is the work better and more interesting than audit/FP&A?

Not personally but I know a few who successfully transitioned into DA. I'd say getting certs would be helpful. You might increase your chances of getting hired if you reach out to recruiters. So yeah, certs will surely help you.

Certs, Bootcamps, or Another Bachelors Degree

Good to know. THank you so much for sharing.
